Chapter 231: Encirclement and Suppression on Four Roads (1)

Just when Meng Qingshan urgently dispatched troops to carry a large number of arms and materials found in the cave, he did not know that the plan of encirclement and suppression of Meng Qingshan's headquarters by the Kwantung Army Headquarters in Fengtian, thousands of miles away, was being discussed.

"Endo-kun, has your intelligence department discovered the Anti-Union Command so far?"

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency Commander, the people of China are hiding too hidden, we only found the approximate range of the people of China, in order to find the headquarters of Meng Qingshan, our intelligence department has sent hundreds of elite personnel, and less than a few dozen people have come back, and all the rest are not heard, I think it is also very auspicious, but they have not sacrificed in vain, we have locked the location of their headquarters activities in the area of Wuyun and Xunhe."

General Umezu Mijiro knew that only by finding the main force of the Anti-Japanese Federation or Meng Qingshan's headquarters and exposing them to the sun could Lieutenant General Tani Shofu and Lieutenant General Kimura Sukushi mobilize a large army to encircle and suppress, otherwise it would be useless to just destroy those stragglers.

How can we find the main force of the Anti-United Nations? Aircraft reconnaissance is obviously not good, this unit is accustomed to night operations, relying on aircraft aerial reconnaissance is unreliable, and not long ago the Japanese reconnaissance plane was attacked by the Chinese and fell several planes, and we still do not know what attack they received there. It is even more difficult to send search units to search and reconnoitre, because now there are small units of the Anti-Japanese Union operating everywhere in the entire Longjiang Province, and it is very likely that the small units will never return. It should be an impossible way to rely on friends who are friendly with the Imperial Army to gather intelligence, but the strange thing is that although the intelligence department has also sent out many friends who are friendly to the Imperial Army, they are all gone. After thinking about it, General Umezu Mijiro felt that the only feasible way was to assemble several divisions. A heavy sweep was carried out along the north side of the Longjiang River along the canal to force out the main force of the Anti-Japanese Federation. Forcing them to engage the Imperial Japanese army head-on. As long as the two sides start fighting, they can't escape. The mighty Imperial Air Force will blow them up!

Thinking of this, General Umezu Mijiro told his thoughts to the people in the staff and asked them if they had any different opinions.

"Your Excellency Commander, I have collected information these days and found that the reason why the Anti-Japanese Federation can rise is all because of this man named Meng Qingshan, he is the biggest enemy of our empire, if you want to eliminate the Anti-Japanese Federation, you must first solve Meng Qingshan."

"Shou Fujun, I and His Excellency the Commander have already discovered what you said, and we deliberately sent a kamikaze death squad to deal with Meng Qingshan."

"The result?"

"Failed, this cunning Shina man actually ran around, so that the empire could not find the exact location all the time. Not long ago, His Excellency General gathered hundreds of planes to attack Hormozhin in order to eliminate Meng Qingshan, and as a result, the empire consumed a lot of ammunition, and Meng Qingshan is still alive and kicking. ”

"Nani! Didn't you send someone to lure down their insiders? Isn't it good for this group of people to be lured down? ”

"Shou Fujun, you don't understand the current group of people in the pass, they used to be very good at luring them to surrender, except for a few hard-boned elements, as long as the rest of the people give some benefits, they will obediently go down the mountain and surrender, but as soon as Meng Qingshan came to power, this group of people was like being brainwashed, and their minds were full of anti-manpower. Everything that opposes the empire, although we have also bought some, but they are all small people in the Anti-Japanese Federation, and what is even more infuriating. It was not easy to buy a battalion-level officer of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, but he was mistakenly killed by an imperial plane not long ago. Major General Saburo Endo said angrily.

After listening to Major General Saburo Endo's words, Gu Shoufu lowered his head and stopped thinking about it. After a while, Gu Shoufu raised his head and said, "Your Excellency Commander, I would like to add. ”

"Yo Xi! Shoufu-kun is coming quickly. "You must know that in less than a few months, the people of China have gradually gone from sneaking up on the Empire's convoys to attacking the Empire's county seats, if they are not suppressed. Then they will definitely be stronger, and it will be difficult for the empire to encircle and suppress them at that time. He didn't feel sorry for the loss of supplies, but he lost so many elite soldiers. You must know that the imperial army will not lose so many troops in a big frontal battle. In the ambush battle of the Anti-United Nations, there were successive losses, coupled with the fact that the Anti-United Nations fought and ran, so that the Japanese army with sophisticated weapons had no place at all, and could only see soldiers who were only a pair of thongs left all over the ground.

"Your Excellency Commander, I don't think we should just go out one way to sweep the army, encircle and suppress the Anti-United Nations Command together in several ways, and slowly devour it. In order to prevent the tyranny of Xu Communism and crush the rampant activities of the bandits, we should not only kill the peasants and workers in the so-called North Manchurian base areas, but also women and children, so that they can see that this is the end of betraying the empire, and at the same time forcing the main forces of the Anti-Japanese Federation to fight a decisive battle with us, haven't they always claimed to be the people's ranks? If they don't come out, we will break the slogan they have been propagating, and then there will be no one to support them. ”

"Which way?"

Gu Shoufu walked to the map and pointed to the map with his finger and said: "The first route is the first division of Qiqihar and the first part of the Manchukuo Army, and at the same time the Yamagata (32) Wing of the Eighth Division stationed in Zhalantun cooperates with the first division, and the strongholds along the Fufu, Yangjiadian, Baiquan and Mergen are dispatched to launch a siege to the North Manchurian anti-Japanese base area, and the second route is to advance the first division of the ninth division stationed in Heihe Fortress along the southeast road to besiege the third route, I will lead the 29th Division to start from Qingcheng to attack Wuyun, The Fourth Route crossed the river to encircle and suppress the Fourth Division stationed in Jiamusi, and finally met in Wuyun. ”

After listening to Gu Shoufu's words, the people in the headquarters all nodded, "Shoufujun is worthy of being a hero who participated in the Battle of Nanjing, I will entrust you with this battle of encirclement and suppression, I hope you can bring us good news." ””

"Hey! Please rest assured, Your Excellency, that I will wipe out this group of people completely. ”

"Shoufujun, you have to pay attention, this time you must not bring a reporter with the army, I don't want to hear the news in the newspaper that is unfavorable to the imperial army."

"Hey!"

"The 29th Division, which has just been established, is assembling at the railway station, this time to kill and exterminate our henchmen, and secondly, to let these soldiers who have just joined the army practice their hands, you can understand what I said."

"Hey! Humble duty understands. ”

The Japanese Kwantung Army formulated a two-month "North Manchurian Public Security and Rectification Plan" from January 1940 to March 1940, established a joint "crusade" command, determined that the commander of the 29th Division of the Kwantung Army, Toshio Tani, was the commander, and entangled 75,000 Japanese puppet police officers to carry out a joint "crusade" against the North Manchurian region. Adopting the method of "integrating the Japanese puppet military and police into one," the "task force," the "advance team," the "work team," and the "propaganda and pacification team" were set up, and the vicious methods such as returning to the cantonments and merging households and clearing the fields by fortifying the walls and clearing the wilderness were carried out, and the confrontation alliance tightened the strict blockade and siege.
